We are currently 10 games without a win against Reading. There's only one other side that we have a longer current winless run against (in all competitions). Which team is that?
arsenal
That lasted long!! Yep. Without a win in 15 attempts. Spurs are the next closest with 9 without a win.Originally Posted by Rjk
haha yep it's always annoying when you have a doozie of a question and some fool guesses the right answer in a few seconds
Lol yes!
Our last win against them was a 3-2 victory at Highbury in 1961. There won't be too many MB posters who remember that.
The 0-0 in the FA cup in 2009 was the only draw against them in 10 attempts. We gave them a scare 2 seasons ago mind.
It might soon be every League One and Two team!
Didn’t we draw with them at home 0-0 in the Cup in 1969? Nearly 60,000 in the ground, got beat 3-1 in the replay in London I think, or was it 2-0? Have we played them more than 10 times since then, seeing as you mentioned 10 attempts?Lol yes!

Yes, we drew 0-0 in 1969 then lost 2-0 at Highbury 3 days later. We've met 11 times since that replay defeat, 7 times in the cup.

It's worth noting that we've never lost at home to Arsenal in the FA cup, despite our dreadful record against them.
Here's a question for you, which City scorer in those matches you list is still with the club?
Isn't Jeff Hemmerman a physio? Is he somehow still involved? The last 4 scorers (Jerome, Camarasa, Ward and Mendez-Laing) have all gone.
Close, but no cigar as they say.
Guessing it must be Roger Gibbons, then.
Yes, provided he still works on the corporate side on match days - if he doesn't, forget I ever asked the question.
At the moment he might be furloughed...Yes, provided he still works on the corporate side on match days - if he doesn't, forget I ever asked the question
I had to look up the scorer from the 1980 tie. Turns out it was John Buchanan. Apparently he was working for Munro's butchers in Dingwall in the north of Scotland last anyone had heard anything.
